Findel wins Prestigious Sustainability & Net Zero Award at BESA 2025

July 2025

We’re incredibly proud to announce that Findel has been awarded the Sustainability & Net Zero Award at the 2025 BESA Awards – a significant recognition of our unwavering commitment to responsible, purpose-driven business.

Held at the Honourable Artillery Company in London, the event brought together leading organisations across the education sector. It was a fantastic opportunity to connect, share best practices, and celebrate those driving meaningful change in schools, supply chains, and beyond.

For Findel, this award represents more than just an accolade — it’s a reflection of the deep and lasting integration of Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) principles into every part of our business. From transforming our supply chain operations to embedding sustainability in product design and logistics, we are proud to be leading the way in our sector.

Chris Mahady, CEO of Findel, said:
“This award is a moment of real pride for everyone at Findel. It highlights the progress we’ve made – and continue to make — in placing sustainability at the heart of our business. To receive this award among such a strong field of organisations, is a fantastic achievement and a clear sign that our approach is both ambitious and impactful. We’re committed to doing the right thing for the planet, our customers, and the future of education.”

From ambitious emission reduction targets to delivering eco-conscious solutions for schools, we continue to challenge ourselves to do better — for our customers, our colleagues, and future generations.

We would like to thank everyone across the business who has played a part in this journey so far. Your passion, ambition, bravery and care are helping to shape a more sustainable future for education — and we couldn’t be prouder.
